Great poems of America!


 

Zounds! Great work on the topic of America. I was thrilled to see the return of Gavin, with this pearl:

She is at her best
Not when we pursue greatness
But act with courage.

And Craig A, who taught me how to swear in Boston:

Love the Boston Pop’s
Fourth celebration on the Charles:
tunes, fire, tradition.

Desiree is positive:

The neighborhood loves
to celebrate the fourth with
fireworks and food.

India, Iran,
Korea, Germany born.
Melting pot party!

Amy is less so (but right):

SCOTUS gut punches,
Same old candidates, made me
Sad on the Fourth. Seems

a door's open to
A different USA. But
There are still fields of

Ripe peaches, blackberries,
Zinnias, bumblebees, white grapes.
Must remember this.

And IPLawGuy has always loved the band America (and Bread), so he went in a different direction:

Sister Golden Hair
great tune; not so for Tin Man
Or the no name horse.

Comments:
America and Bread are Proto-Yacht Rock bands, kind of like how the Sonics were Proto-Punks
